Abstract
AbstractA review of progress made by amateurs in visual searching for supernovae in other galaxies reveals twelve discoveries made so far. A comparison between photographic and visual search methods reveals that each type of method has certain advantages and disadvantages. There are three minor problems and three major problems confronting visual searching. The main problem is the poor availability of good Survey photographs of many galaxies to amateurs and the restricted range of galaxies covered by available charts.
